[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1950314, member: 396914"] If by "doc" you meant the Dock at the bottom or side of the screen, the Terminal app icon is there by default from Apple. You didn't say it was running, although you said you closed it. Did it have the little dot below the icon to indicate it was running? How did you "close" it? As Ashwin indicates, there is no real threat to the system indicated by what happened and no need to be paranoid about it. As for the rest, as Ashwin says, there is no reason to shut down WiFi or power down. [/QUOTE]
